A fugitive suspected of the attempted murder of a Puerto Rican police officer has been arrested in Rochester.

Norberto Morales-Ferrer allegedly shot at a Puerto Rican police officer during a vehicle stop Feb. 10. He then disappeared, but law enforcement received word he may have traveled to Rochester where a friend lived.

That information came from a U.S. Marshals Service task force in Puerto Rico, according to Charles Salina, the U.S. Marshal for western New York.

Morales-Ferrer was arrested late Tuesday "without incident," according to a U.S. Marshals news release.

The New York State Police, the Rochester Police Department, Monroe County Sheriff’s Office and the New York parole department assisted in the search for and capture of Morales-Ferrer, according to the Marshals Service. He is now in the county jail, awaiting extradition to Puerto Rico.

Morales-Ferrer was allegedly with another individual when the Puerto Rican police officer pulled the car over in February. The other person was arrested shortly after the shooting.
